The Lonely Island (featuring Norah Jones) - Dreamgirl

By the guys who did Dick in a Box and Jizz in my Pants--Dreamgirl is one of their underrated and most likely has gone unnoticed by most.

The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra - Chicago, My Home Town

Hoodie Allen - You Are Not A Robot (feat. Marina & The Diamonds)

This song is alright. I mostly like the incredibly clever name, its like a reference to Woody Allen, but since they are gangsters they are all like "hoodie allen." Hilarious. (hope the sarcasm is coming through.) Anyways I thought it would be funny to show the little youtube conversation I had on the comments page:

So first off, I said (or as jakobsnacks): what are they sampling?

then Ayble2Do said: @jakobsnacks All you have to do is click on the info tab directly underneath the video.

It's the small arrow to the left of the play counter. It will give you a drop-down box that explains everything you need to know.

Or, you could read the title of the video and apply deductive reasoning.

Then I said to Ayble2Do: ...alright that was a retarded question I asked. It's the internet, I like my shit spoon fed to me. Do it with less bitter contempt please.

And then Mr. Super Cool Ayble2Do had better things to do then argue with me over youtube, and thus, he never responded.

Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole - Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Been listening to this song since I was a little kid. I hadn't in a while and it came to my mind so I youtubed it. It seemed like such a sad bittersweet song when I was younger, and it always made me feel a little bummy. But if you watch this video, I don't think there is anyway you could feel sad.

The Girl Who Fixed the Umlaut

 For any one who's read The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, this parody written for The New Yorker will make you laugh your ass off. I was laughing out loud at work one day and I had to stop reading it halfway through, because I couldn't contain myself. I'm sure it would still be funny to those who haven't read the book, but it is like a perfect parody.


There was a tap at the door at five in the morning. She woke up. Shit. Now what? She’d fallen asleep with her Palm Tungsten T3 in her hand. It would take only a moment to smash it against the wall and shove the battery up the nose of whoever was out there annoying her. She went to the door.

Peter, Paul, and Mary - Early Morning

I heard this song in an episode of Mad Men. Which is a show I highly recommend. I know some of you might think that watching television is the quickest way to destroying your mind, and well, I don't really have an argument against that but if you got nothing to do (and lets say you are tired after a long day of work and don't feel like reading) than waste your time with a little bit of Mad Men. It's a very interesting series and as I approach the end of the second season I'm beginning to form an analysis that the heroes of the story, are the women (that is, the women of the strange 1960s) and really its the men (the MAD men) who are the villains.

Also here is a link to the exact song sung again by a priest--from Mad Men!
